Computed Tomography (CT) Recording of a predetermined plane in the body using an x-ray beam that is measured, recorded, and then processed by a computer for display on a monitor. Diagnostic Medical Sonography Visualization of deep structures of the body by recording the reflections of pulses of ultrasound(high frequency) waves directed into the tissue. Energy Capacity to operate or work. Ionization Any process by which a neutral atom gains or loses an electron, thus acquiring a net charge. Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) use a strong magnetic field and radio waves along with a computer to generate sectional images of patient anatomy Mammography Radiography of the breast. Nuclear Medicine Technology Branch of radiology that involves the introduction of radioactive substances into the body for both diagnostic and therapeutic purposes. Positron Emission Tomography (PET) The creation of sectional images of the body that demonstrate the physiologic function of various organs and systems. today many pet combine with CT or MR( anatomical function)
